I'd love Elie to come if they'd do a sign-and-trade for Cheaney.

Finding an NBA job for another two years is his objective. Currently the fourth-oldest starter (37) in the league (three championships rings to his credit in nine previous seasons), Elie sees himself as an 8-to-10 minute player for a team like the Bulls or the Warriors, where his primary function would be to mentor the youngest players. After that? Perhaps an assistant coaching position.
